Chapter 406 - Let's Play With Polar Bear-san

(……What should I do?)

Lyle asked himself in his mind.

Tatsuyoshi-kun Normal charged once again to meet the approaching polar bear's attack and was utterly blown away. While rolling away, Tatsuyoshi-kun Normal also immediately fired the Spell『Fire Vortex』it had been granted by Golem Maker, but due to its bad posture when firing, it didn't hit the polar bear.

And while holding his dragon fang spear at the ready, Lyle avoided the approaching polar bear's attack. The demi-gauntlet claws, which would likely kill him in a single blow, passed right by Lyle. The momentum of the wind alone made Lyle feel like he was about to be blown away.

「Dangerous!」

Lyle involuntarily shouted. Also, it looked like Louise and the others in the carriage group were struggling. It seemed that disgusting mass of meat was unexpectedly strong. Even so... Lyle thought.

They were separated from Jinrai and Yumika along the way. Neither Kazane nor Naoki were present. It was undeniable that with their main forces lacking, they were out of their depth.

(Die with this, Sir Bear!!)

Lyle, who was now behind the bear, thought that he could finally give a blow to the polar bear. However, that was naive.

「Seriously!?」

The next moment, with a big swing of its arm, the polar bear's attack approached. Lyle reflexively blocked with his dragon fang spear and was blown away.

(Damn it)

However, Lyle's training wasn't just for show. He prepared his posture in the air, and at the same time as his landing, he thrust his spear into the ground to kill his momentum. However, he couldn't do so completely, so he lost his posture and rolled across the ground.

「Tch」

He felt like his whole body was about to fall apart, but he couldn't afford to stop moving and pay attention to that. There was a huge shadow approaching before his eyes.

「GURUooOOOO!!」

It was a simple charging headbutt. But with the polar bear's weight and speed, that alone could easily bury Lyle. It had too much width to dodge by going left or right. Going underneath was impossible. In that case, above... so concluding, Lyle dashed toward the polar bear and jumped up right in front of it.

And Lyle successfully avoided the polar bear's attack. Now behind the polar bear, he rolled away with great momentum and stood up.

「How's that, beast!」

He barely managed to escape the crisis. However, that was only a single dodge.

Without pause, Lyle pulled an Adamantium spear out of his Mysterious Bag.

As a matter of fact, the『Adamantium spears』they obtained from the Adamant Skull Ashuras were divided up and stored in dedicated Mysterious Bags for Jinrai, Yumika, and Lyle's use.

The Adamantium spears were powerful, but since they weren't processed in any particular way, their manufacturing was half-hearted. Therefore, they were inadequate compared to Lyle and the others' current equipment, but they were extremely powerful weapons for throwing.

And for the current Lyle, excluding the dragon fang spear,『Thunder God Spear』using an Adamantium spear was his most powerful attack.

「Holy, Normal. Charge!」

Together with Lyle's cry, the Holy Skull Legion and Tatsuyoshi-kun Normal started running and plunged toward the polar bear. The polar bear tried to forcibly mow them down, but as might be expected, two at the same time was difficult.

Tatsuyoshi-kun Normal was blown away, but the Holy Skull Legion somehow endured.

「Eat this!」

Lyle's full power『Thunder God Spear』was thrown at it.

「GURUO!?」

Then the Adamantium spear pierced the polar bear's back. Lightning ran through its entire body, and that attack certainly should have gone through.

(Seriously?)

However, Lyle's face contorted. He shuddered at the reality before his eyes.

The polar bear's vigor hadn't diminished. Its movements didn't show any signs of slowing down either.

The spear blow that had contained his full power wasn't able to go through the polar bear's muscles. That fact eroded Lyle's heart with feelings of despair.

(No, not yet. There's still more I can do.)

But just in time, Lyle frantically cheered up his heart, which was on the verge of breaking. He hadn't tried every possible method yet.

(If I want to kill it, I have no choice but to aim for the head...!?)

As Lyle was thinking, it appeared in front of him again.

As the polar bear charged toward him once again, Lyle jumped to the right to dodge this time. However, he was unable to completely dodge.

「Ku!?」

When he collided with the polar bear, Lyle reflexively blocked with his dragon bone light shield. Because of that, he avoided a direct hit. However, he was sent flying with extreme force.

「GAaAAAAAAA!」

And an excessively fierce shock ran through Lyle's body.

The surrounding scenery turned round and round, and Lyle rolled forcefully across the ground. How many times did he fall to the ground? Lyle's entire body was barely holding together.

However, Lyle was still enduring. It was to the point that it was strange that he remained conscious, but the defensive power of the dragon scale armor he was given by Kazane narrowly saved Lyle's life.

「I'm in the middle of thinking. You damn bastard!」

Lyle somehow managed to stand and involuntarily shouted that in a fit of anger, but naturally, the polar bear didn't show him any consideration.

Tatsuyoshi-kun Normal and the Holy Skull Legion chased the polar bear, but the polar bear's gaze was completely fixed on Lyle alone.

Which was natural. So far, only Lyle's Thunder God Spear had damaged the polar bear. And the polar bear also noticed that Lyle was the one controlling the Holy Skull Legion and Tatsuyoshi-kun Normal.

(Counter... charge... point-blank... is there no choice but to do it?)

Lyle, who had incurred damage to his entire body, had no choice but to resolve himself. He had no choice but to make up his mind.

(Damn it. This bastard has me seriously cornered)

Since joining the White Party, there had always been someone nearby who was stronger than him, and Lyle was often in a position to assist at the end. But right now was different.

Visit readel.me for extra chapters.

(Hahaha, you'll make me cry)

He had resolved himself, but without a charge, he couldn't successfully counter. Thinking that in that case, there was no choice but to make it do so, Lyle shouted.

「UooOO!」

Lyle charged with his spear.

「GURUO!」

The polar bear also shouted and started running. Then it held aloft its right hand and struck Lyle, who jumped up and blocked.

「Gu, aaAAAAA!?」

Lyle screamed at the pain running through his entire body. While feeling like his body was about to tear apart, he was blown away. And while spinning around in the air like a top, Lyle was sent soaring 10 meters away from the polar bear.

Lyle withstood it. He endured. That was exactly what he was aiming for. They were distant from each other, back to square one. While suffering so much damage that it was strange that his body was still able to move, he stood up. And as he prepared his spear,

the polar was charging toward him.『As planned』. This time, a charging attack was coming.

(Now, my only option is to aim from here)

His consciousness became dim. But, it wasn't bad. His body was light. His body was hot. His condition felt better than usual. Lyle turned such an illusion into reality by becoming clad in the Fighting Spirit welling up from his entire body. It was the same『Red Body Transformation』Skill Kazane had acquired.

And his aim was to counter. The strongest attack Lyle currently had was the Thunder God Spear. And he applied the repulsive force of the『Echo Shield』, which was originally a defensive measure, to the spear itself to forcibly increase its speed,

「Eat this!!」

「GURUooO!!」

And fired a point-blank『Thunder God Spear』at the polar bear swooping down on him.

The polar bear's head was pulverized. At the same time, Lyle was also sent flying by the polar bear.

He had fired with all his strength. But he hadn't thought about defense. The polar bear's momentum didn't stop when its head was destroyed. Lyle was grandly sent flying, drew an arc through the air, and crashed into the ground.

「Brother!?」

Emily shouted when she saw that, but Lyle was completely still. Was he alive or dead? As for the polar bear...

While giving off smoke, its destroyed head was being restored.
